Top 12 Music Albums of 2006
by zdwyatt

This chart only includes albums that have four or more stars. My ratings begin as an average of the ratings of the songs, out of a possible 100. I may adjust the album's star rating based on the album's personal significance, historical importance, or pure nostalgia. I list both ratings in my review.
